Sharon Wharton

Sharon Wharton, LCSW, is a dedicated therapist who specializes in guiding individuals through challenging periods in their lives, particularly during times of loss or significant life transitions. In moments when people often feel afraid, lost, and uncertain, Sharon provides a safe and supportive environment. She understands that it's common for individuals facing adversity to be overly critical of themselves, withdraw in shame, or lose touch with what brings them joy. Through her compassionate approach, Sharon equips her clients with the tools and skills they need to cultivate a life filled with connection and purpose. She collaborates with clients to acknowledge their current situations, highlighting their inherent strengths and skills, and empowering them to overcome feelings of unhappiness, guilt, or numbness. With techniques rooted in Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), Compassion Focused Therapy, and other modalities, Sharon keeps her clients’ goals at the forefront of their journey. She offers non-judgmental and empathetic assistance that reframes experiences and alleviates immediate suffering. Through her practice, Sharon fosters an understanding that while emotions such as sadness and anxiety can lead to isolation and fear, no one has to navigate these challenges alone.
